Cassius woke up. He sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, not saying a word.

When Suzaku came to wake him up, he found that he had woken up. She leaned over happily, "Are you better, good boy?" ”

Cassius didn't answer, didn't even lift his head.

“…… Cassius woke up? Blake's voice was faint, but his expression betrayed his joy and excitement, and he walked towards Cassius in three steps and two steps, and put his hands on his shoulders, "Cassius, I'm back!" ”

Cassius didn't react, just sat dumbfounded.

"Eh......" Blake crouched down and looked up, only then did he see his face lowered. What's wrong with you, Cassius ......"

Cassius didn't say a word, and sat motionless.

……

"Sure enough, ...... you did something wrong?" Pony looked at him with some concern, "How do you ...... like dementia?"

"What then?" Gaia frowned slightly, "How can we accept such a lively elf as Cassius becoming like this?" ”

"Uh-huh...... Ponymo rubbed his chin, "give him some stimulation about his memory, it might be able to recover ......"

"How do you want to be excited?" Muse looked at Cassius, who was sitting stupidly on the side.

"Hmm...... People or things that you think he is more impressed ......" Pony shrugged.

"Well," Rey patted Blake on the shoulder, "you know Cassius best, and this task is up to you." ”

Blake twitched the corners of his mouth.

"I'm Blake," Blake raised his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "I'm finally back." Did you miss me? ”

Cassius was indifferent.

“…… Byrne, I'm Blackburn. Do you remember Brother Bourne? Blake pinched his face, "You rarely call me Brother Bourne anymore." ”

"Hmm...... Then do you remember, on the planet Celestial Snake, I taught you combat skills? You're stupid......"

"We liberated Kahlan together, Spiral, and now we want to liberate our hometown Rift Sky, don't you just quit?"

"We are the God of War Alliance, stick to trust, move forward with one heart, and vow to always remember you ......and me."

Cassius showed no reaction.

Blake sat next to him, raised his hand and gently hooked his shoulder, and fell silent.

The atmosphere was so quiet that Zaichen was uncomfortable. "Hey, what's wrong with this little broken kid?"

"Shut up, in the dust." Blake snorted coldly and frowned slightly.

“…… Again, I'm not wrong. "It's not cool in the dust. He thought for a moment, "How did you and Cassius meet?" ”

"We ......," Blake frowned slightly.

"Run! The Black Soul is coming to catch the elves again! ”

As if he had been struck by lightning, the black bulaj elf stood up from the ground "Teng", ignoring the blood and tears on his face, and ran away.

A cannonball fell from the sky and aimed at the limping little thing.

He fell to the ground with a thud, and when he looked up and saw the thing that would explode, his pupils narrowed instantly.

There was a white expanse in front of me, and I couldn't see anything. In my ears, the footsteps of the Grim Reaper.

Hey?

A purple round shield suddenly appeared in front of him, surrounded by a faint circle of light, reflecting the "bronze" little face into a lilac.

The shield suddenly disappeared again, and the piercing explosion rang out, and he covered his ears and screamed in fear, completely ignoring the roar of the explosion that had drowned him out.

"Ah————h

“…… Enough shouting. ”

The little thing looked up at the black-clad elf who was high up in the sky.

"Wow!" He stood up, still holding his head up, and his eyes became star-shaped, "You're so amazing!" ”

The elf was too tall to see his face. However, he could be heard snorting faintly, "Hmm." ”

Then he turned and walked away.

But he wasn't an elf walking, there was a brown ball of flesh behind him.

……】

A wave of warmth crept over Blake's eyes. He closed his eyes to hide it, a wry smile on his lips.

He turned his head to look at Cassius. Cassius still kept his head down, quietly.

Blake raised his hand and pinched his chin so that he had to make eye contact with himself, "Katz said he likes to look at me. He said that he could get an inexplicable power from my eyes. …… But I can't face such a pure, innocent, innocent gaze......"

Cassius' eyes blinked naturally every few seconds, without any reaction, looking at him with a blank face.

“…… I don't want Cassius to become the next Black......" Blake bit his lower lip, "It's the stupidest elves who will make future generations repeat the mistakes of the past......"

Cassius blinked, but didn't make a sound.

Blake slowly lowered his head, his lips touching the sapphire on his forehead.

"I'm still too late to come back, Cassius ......"
